New BHO member Marv Ripp made this banjo.
Here's the video: youtube.com/watch?v=gs5Tsvb7XR...=youtu.be
MY mistake was trying to make a video with a rummage-sale camera, and nobdy to operate it.
We just put it on a tripod, turned it on, and did what we could.

Very personalized... I love it! Really classy touch carving the tuner buttons out of stone!!

Really nice. I love it when folks make their own bits from stuff laying around the house.
A humble suggestion: tighten the head a bit(?)

The J hooks are cut and re-threaded motorcycle spokes.
I've advised Marv to take them off ONE AT A TIME, cut the threads a bit further up, and put the hook back on, so he doesn't have to mess with repositioning thetension hoop.
The stone tuner buttons are actually laminated in 3 layers, but STILL, stone tuner buttons!!
